giving
her
the

John
the
Baptist
From:
Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary
Salome
perfect
. (1.)
The
wife
of
Zebedee
and
mother
of
James
and
John
(
Mat
. 27:56),
and
probably
the
sister
of
Mary
,
the
mother
of
our
Lord
(
John
19:25).
She
sought
for
her
sons
places
of
honour
in
Christ's
kingdom
(
Matt
. 20:20, 21;
comp
. 19:28).
She
witnessed
the
crucifixion
(
Mark
15:40),
and
was
present
with
the
other
women
at
the
sepulchre
(
Matt
. 27:56).
(2.) "
The
daughter
of
Herodias
,"
not
named
in
the
New
Testament
.
On
the
occasion
of
the
birthday
festival
held
by
Herod
Antipas
,
who
had
married
her
mother
Herodias
,
in
the
fortress
of
Machaerus
,
she
"
came
in
and
danced
,
and
pleased
Herod
" (
Mark
6:14-29).
John
the
Baptist
,
at
that
time
a
prisoner
in
the
dungeons
underneath
the
castle
,
was
at
her
request
beheaded
by
order
of
Herod
,
and
his
head
given
to
the
damsel
in
a
charger
, "
and
the
damsel
gave
it
to
her
mother
,"
whose
revengeful
spirit
was
thus
gratified
. "
A
luxurious
feast
of
the
period
" (
says
Farrar
,
Life
of
Christ
) "
was
not
regarded
as
complete
unless
it
closed
with
some
gross
pantomimic
representation
;
and
doubtless
Herod
had
adopted
the
evil
fashion
of
his
day
.
But
he
had
not
anticipated
for
his
guests
the
rare
luxury
of
seeing
a
princess
,
his
own
niece
,
a
grand-daughter
of
Herod
the
Great
and
of
Mariamne
,
a
descendant
,
therefore
,
of
Simon
the
high
priest
and
the
great
line
of
Maccabean
princes
,
a
princess
who
afterwards
became
the
wife
of
a
tetrarch
[
Philip
,
tetrarch
of
Trachonitis
]
and
the
mother
of
a
king
,
honouring
them
by
degrading
herself
into
a
scenic
dancer
."
